Filtration:

- Some canister prefilter that I loaded with a sheet of wool and stuffed with coral chips. Lots of pods running around in here :P

- An old EHEIM canister filter my late father left me, no idea what model this is. Only live rock in here.

I have a love/hate relationship with this tank, I love the design but it's a real pain to work with with regards to maintenance and equipment sourcing. The very narrow opening at the top also means that oxygen exchange is

restricted. I had the tank crash on me once in the early days because the wavemaker wasn't causing enough surface agitation and it became hypoxic.

Hi bro, you can consider using bubble stone or strip at the back to increase gas exchange. It will look cool if you properly place it.

bubble stone cause salt spray to the vicinity and affect ur SG if u do not do your due diligent. air stone is for FW
